Abstract

This study is concerned with the desirability or undesirability of a well-planned training program which will improve the employee's over-all efficiency by improving his skill, knowledge and, attitude.

A careful survey has been made of the material
already published and available on the subject of training programs, consisting of a historical background of training, consideration of the placing of the responsibility to see
that the employee is properly trained, and a detailed discussion on the different types of training programs.
Case studies have been made of several selected industries
and personal interviews made with management and training
officials to determine their attitude toward training.

An evaluation has been made as to the justification
of training programs, pointing out some of their weaknesses
and suggesting possible solutions.
